I'm having alittle trouble getting my dual carbs dialed in, the 1st is rich, and the second is lean. My fuel pump was putting out 3.5psi, but the guy I bought my carbs from said I should run 2.6psi instead. What do you guys think?
I've got 60 idle jets and 180 mains, which I thought was overkill, until he told me that I should run 2.6 instead of 3.5 psi. |

I talked to Aaron from CB performance, who was awesome. He asked some really good questions, and I think has put me on the right track. A couple of things that came from it.
1. covering the barrel of the first carb will kill the engine - covering the barrel of the second carb does nothing. 2. no amount of adjustments seem to do anything to the second carb. It really sounds like I have a air leak in my second carb. When I go home tonight, I'm going to spray carb cleaner around and see if I can find it. That would pretty much explain alot of what I'm seeing. |
